Title:
ANNULAR METAL CORD AND ENDLESS METAL BELT
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2007/055290
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
An easy-to-produce annular metal cord exhibiting excellent break strength and an endless metal belt are provided. The annular metal cord has an annular core portion (3) and an outer layer portion (4). The annular core portion (3) is formed by bonding the opposite ends of a first strand material (1) consisting of six stranded first metal wires (5). The outer layer portion (4) is formed by winding a second strand material (2) consisting of six stranded second metal wires (6) six turns spirally around the annular core portion (3). The second strand material (2) is wound at a predetermined winding angle with respect to the central axis of the annular core portion (3), wherein the start-of-winding portion and the end-of-winding portion are coupled. Since six second strand materials (2) are not wound but the second strand material (2) are wound six turns, only one second strand material is required and the second strand material is coupled at only one position. Consequently, break strength of the annular metal cord can be enhanced while production is facilitated.
